Remembering Professor Christina Crosby

On Tuesday, January 5th, 2021 the FGSS department lost our fierce, brilliant, and committed friend, teacher, mentor, and colleague, Professor Christina Crosby. Professor Crosby was a founding member of Wesleyan University's Women Studies and helped the changes that led to its becoming Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. She was the heart and soul of our department. Until the end of her life, she worked to make the world a better place. Her life and work have inspired all of us who were lucky to know and work alongside her. Professor Crosby's obituary can be found at https://www.doolittlefuneralservice.com/obituary/Christina-Crosby

A memorial gathering was held on Saturday, May 15th, 2021 from 11:00am-12:30pm (EST) via Zoom. A recording of the event can be viewed below:
